Q:

Use the formula SA=6s2 , where SA is the surface area and s is the edge length of the cube, to solve this problem.Eliz must cover a cube-shaped box with giftwrap. The edge length of the box is 312 feet.What is the surface area of the box?Enter your answer, as a mixed number in simplest form, in the box.

Accepted Solution

A:
Using the SA formula you'll have to substitute in the edge length for s.

SA = 6(312)²
SA = 584064

The surface area is 584,064 feet²

Hope this helps :)
